| Re: [iot-wg] Re-start Eclipse IoT WG Steering Committee |
All, As a follow-up to our conversation about the IoT Steering Committee, I have created an draft version of an updated charter for the Eclipse IoT Working Group. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Y-_jF2LqrEvS1EqgdQk2Rgf8FtywVSz8oWQiROL8LvE/edit?usp=sharing We can talk about this draft during our call tomorrow but feel free to send comments and questions on this mailing list. Thanks Ian From: iot-wg-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:iot-wg-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Ian Skerrett All, I would like to propose that we re-start the Eclipse IoT Working Group Steering Committee. The initial working group charter [1] includes a Steering Committee but in the last number of years this committee has not been operational. Re-starting the steering committee will be the first step to defining a governance model to create more successful collaborations within the working group. Over the last number of years our working group has grown to become a significant provider of technology to the IoT industry. As more and more companies and projects join, we need to make it clear how decisions will be made that span projects and organizations. We also see the steering committee helping to better coordinate resources across the community. To start this discussion, I have created a document [2] to describe the role of the steering committee and the criteria to join the steering committee. Representatives from Red Hat, Bosch and Eurotech have reviewed and commented on the document and these companies have agreed to participate in the new steering committee. At the next IoT WG meeting, I would like to review the document and collect feedback from the working group. In parallel, I will begin to update the existing Eclipse IoT WG charter to reflect the new steering committee. I will also take the opportunity to update some of the terminology in the charter to remove the M2M references. Please let me know if you have any questions or feedback. We can certainly talk about the details during the meeting tomorrow.
